Bregan D Aethe Quotes

“Consider this part of your journey a growing experience,” Jarlaxle explained. “You don’t have your son’s scimitars anymore. Do you think I would allow my second—”
“Kimmuriel is your second.”
“He’s the other half of my first. In my part of Bregan D’aerthe, in my, shall we say, personal journeys, you are my partner.”
“You called me your second. Now I’m your partner? And does Artemis Entreri know of this new arrangement?”
“We’ve a fight coming. Are you going to argue about everything?”
“Titles matter.”
“What would you prefer?”

“I remain loyal to Jarlaxle. Always loyal to Jarlaxle. He found me on the streets, broken and wondering the point of life itself, and gave to me a home, a path, and a purpose. I do not wish to ever replace him, but am bound to make him confident that if something ever happened to him, all that he has built will be well served by me, if I remain alive. Never would I think of being the source of his demise, in any way.”

“That was the truth of his power, he realized, the ability to delegate responsibility and allow others to rightfully take their credit. The strength of Jarlaxle lay not in Jarlaxle, though even alone he could be formidable indeed, but in the competent soldiers with whom the mercenary surrounded himself. To battle Jarlaxle was to battle Bregan D’aerthe, an organisation of free-thinking, amazingly competent drow warriors. To battle Jarlaxle was to lose.”
